Working Theory

The Magnum Mercedes G290 High Performance Air Filter is designed to add horsepower, torque and acceleration to your engine by providing up to 40% more airflow to the engine. Better air flow results in better engine response and more low-end torque throughout the engine’s RPM range. All Magnum Free-Flow Air Filters are composed of multiple layers of oiled cotton filter media that not only warrant superior airflow but excellent filtration as well to ensure max longevity. The air filter is a critical component of your engine. A properly maintained Free-Flow Air Filter is essential for extending the life and performance of the engine. The Mercedes G290 Magnum cleanable and reusable high grade filter media significantly lowers air restriction and increases engine performance level, torque and acceleration. Its precision pleat geometry optimizes air flow throughout the intake system, thus, increases the pony. The 5 layers of high flow cotton gauze air filters are reusable, washable, and made to last a lifetime. Only use the 5-layered cotton gauze - stainless steel mesh - oil film combined with High Flow Air Filter from Magnum. The Magnum Mercedes G290 Forced Intake Air Filter is designed with 5 layers of cotton gauze media sandwiched between two metallic meshes. The cotton media is then treated with a specially formulated grade of oil that causes the stickiness throughout the cotton's fibers. This cotton is responsible for the high volumes of air flow, and when combined with the sticky oil, this element creates an efficient filtering media that guarantees engine protection.

Gently shake off excess water and allow your filter to dry or blow it with hair drier. Never use high pressure air. Don’t use heat gun. Do not proceed until the air filter is completely dry. Let the filter dry or use a hairdryer! Never use electric heat gun because the cotton gauze can be burnt. Apply special Air Filter Oil to the inlet side of the filter.
